Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and method for discovering products in an item inventory are presented. The system receives a corpus of item information listings respectively describing items that are categorized in the same category and including titles but no product identifiers. The system generates a plurality of candidate phrases based on the plurality of titles. The system prunes insignificant phrases from the plurality of candidate phrases to identify a plurality of pruned candidate phrases. The system matches each of the titles to a pruned candidate phrase based on the significance information to identify matched pruned candidate phrases. The matching includes identifying a longest pruned candidate phrase that matches each of the titles. The system stores matched pruned candidate phrases as qualified product titles in the listings to generate a productized corpus of item information and communicates the productized corpus of item information to the sender.
